THEIR SEAT WAS REDRAWNR+55.3 → R+36.0

Alabama is going back to the map its legislature passed in 2023. A court-drawn map was used in 2024; on June 2, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court paused a lower-court order blocking the 2023 map, so the state's own map is in use this cycle. It becomes much less Republican, going from Trump +55.3 to Trump +36 in the 2024 presidential vote.
